Akwatype Type or facade structure export is a very practical communication tool between teams.

It is understandable and usable by both technical and functional teams

it allows to explain the structure of a facade (and consequently of the exchanged json messages) by indicating in particular the nomenclatures used and by displaying the examples associated with the fields.

The labels are taken from the metadata of the model or built from the names of the fields if they are not filled in

Note: The glossary column is only relevant in the Enterprise version of Akwatype

 

When a facade modifies the structure of a type as in the following example, Akwatype detects the fields corresponding to the nomenclature code and automatically builds understandable labels for these field.

facade PersonDTO on Person{
    name
    firstName
    with address{
        street
        city
        country.code
    }
    skills{
        date
        level.level
        skill.code
    }
}

 

To export the Excel file corresponding to a type or a facade

  • Position yourself on the declaration of the type or the facade
  • Open the context menu with a right click
  • select the export option
